Lol imagine if you've spent $13k on a bottle of wine by accident and your worst nightmare is that people on twitter are mad at you. Eat the rich.

Well that was intended as an exaggerated joke about how dumb and bougie they are, I didn't think anyone would take that seriously honestly - but Ffor real - I'm not in line because my mother chose to emancipate herself and specifically asked to be disinherited. She's no longer part of the line and doesn't want to be. For the record, I agree with her decision. They are truly horrible people.
My mum's Dad's side are very old English rich people. Not "in line for the throne" or "aristocracy" rich but they have a large house, a coat of arms, a horse, fox hunting meetings and so on. They're obsessed with their historic position as a family and their current position in "society". I would class them as bougie snobs who aren't as rich as they want people to think, aren't as significant as they themselves think (like my cousin legitimately thinks that her last name and their instagram with 2,000 followers makes her "a celebrity" for instance even though no one has ever heard of the family outside of her circles) and who basically spend their entire lives obsessing over things they think make them look a certain way.
If you want Dm me and I'll send you the coat of arms and other details if you're curious about it. I'd rather not openly dox myself publicly but I don't mind sharing it with people. I don't have a lot to do with them (and never have), they abused my mother and treated my aunt like she was heaven sent.
This anecdote kind of reminds me of what I’ve heard about that kind of “house-rich money-poor” remnant of English aristocracy, that a bunch of them have been running up against financial problems and have to do shit like open their castles to the public for tours, run a bed and breakfast out of their country house, etc. I pray for your family’s sake that they never have to suffer the indignity of getting a real job.
Yeah I don't have enough contact with them to know if they've been forced to do that yet but their attitude towards people who work in service jobs is fucking abhorrent. At my mums 40th, my aunt drank too much and went on a horrible rant about the people working at the restaurant and how "disgusting" she found the wait staff in particular. They have nothing but contempt for anyone who works or doesn't have as much money as they do. That includes my mother and our family.
So the idea of them being forced to join the workforce and get real 9 to 5 jobs would be fucking amazing. My cousin used to go to fast food joints and Treat the staff like absolute shit with her friends and laugh at them for, you know, doing their jobs. She's an absolute fucking ghoul but of the dumbest kind.
Lmao I didn't know these people still exist... That's wild...
